It's the same old people involved
With the same old problem to be solved
Morning glory, it's same old story
A guy being hurt as he can be
And I know, because I took you back
And all over again, you started hurting me
(Ooh, it's the same old story)

It's the same old heart being broken
With the same cruel words being spoken
Morning glory, it's the same old story
Of a girl who wants to be free
And I know, because I took you back
And all over again, you want to be free of me
(Ooh, it's the same old story
Ooh, it's the same old story)

It was the same old foolish heart mending
With the same old heartbreaker ending
Morning glory, it's the same old story
Of a girl who couldn't play her part
And I know, because I took you back
And all over again, oh yes, I took you back
And all over again, you're going to break my heart
(Ooh, it's the same old story)
The same old story (Ooh, it's the same old story)
Morning glory, my, the same old story
(Ooh, it's the same old story) You're breaking my heart
(Ooh, it's the same old story) The same old story
